摘要:At the commencement of the new millennium, we find ourselves at a crucial point in the long and tortuous history of the human race on Planet Earth. The last century was extraordinary and had witnessed unparalleled progress but also unimaginable destruction. We live in a shrinking world in which the malign heritage of conflict and competition will have to give way to a new culture of convergence and cooperation. Scientific and technological ingenuity has given us the capacity to overcome all those challenges, but what is missing is the wisdom and compassion to apply them creatively. Knowledge is expanding but wisdom languishes. The astounding communications technology, which today encircles the globe, seldom uses its tremendous potential to spread global values and foster a more caring, compassionate consciousness. It is essential that the spiritual dimension be given central importance in our new educational thinking. The need to effect fundamental changes in our educational system without further loss of time has become paramount. Since the present century will provide unprecedented means for communication and for the circulation and storage of information, it will impose on education new demands. The Indian education system has changed from gurukul education to cyberspace education. The last two decades have witnessed a paradigm shift in the process of imparting and learning education. We are more and more being drifted towards westernized education leaving aside our rich traditional values and ethics. The values and ethics, which promoted qualities that make an individual socially effective and happy, inculcate friendliness, co-operativeness compassionate, self-disciplined, tolerant fearless, honest, truthful, dependable, courteous and having love for social justice.
